At the Movies (long film titles, to go with all the long lines you'll see this weekend)

There is much in the way of unintentional hilarity in today's Runner-Up: Bulova watch, snakes, remote car - $1 (Mira Mesa) Such a weird trilogy of items for sale! Lions, tigers, and bears; or, alternatively; sex, drugs, and rock and …
The Blood Blog -- The Chargers Blood Drive
I told myself I’d never go to the Chargers Blood Drive again. The few times I had done it previously, the crowd was too much to deal with. But I had a few friends going, so I thought I’d give …
Democrats elect PALIN!!!
That could be the headline in three years from now; why? Because lunatic elements of the Democratic Party are going to push the independents, just as they did in 1980 and again in 94 (congress) and 2000, to the Republican …
